Good afternoon! Hope everyone is having a terrific Tuesday!

My daughter is taking a nap right now, so I have some time to get my blog posts done and inventory done. Yes, I religiously keep up with my inventory. Since I am constantly making new products and get in-person sales, I take a complete inventory twice a month. Once at the beginning, and once at the end.

This post features new items I have added to the Etsy store as well as sneak peaks of new items that have either been made and not added yet or items that are still in the planning stages.

My first new item is the Rose Water Setting Spray. It is 100% all natural and made with red rose petals, lavender buds, distilled water (always distilled water in all of my products that require it-no microbes!), Vegetable Glycerin, Aloe Vera, and Tamanu Oil. This is a quick-dry setting spray. After you apply your makeup, just spray all over your face and allow it to dry. Lasts all day!

Black Diamond Eye Shimmer

The next item on my list is my new Black Diamond Eye Shimmer. It is a dark gray that is close to black with shimmers of gold, pink, silver, and slight undertone green shimmers. It is the perfect eye shimmer for smoky eyes with a hint of reflective shimmer. Use it with or without an eye primer, it's totally up to you. Washes off easily, but lasts throughout the day.

I do have some more eye shimmers that I am getting ready to put on the site. I am hoping to get those ready before June so they can be included in the June Sale event on the 17th through the 19th.

I get asked all the time if I use my own products, and the answer is absolutely! Why wouldn't I? I make a separate sample for myself to try. If I don't like it, I don't approve it for sale to the public. I also use my own products on a daily basis. Yes, I use the soaps, skincare, and cosmetics because if I can't use anything else. I have noticed a huge difference in my skin's improved complexion, texture, and the overall appearance of my skin. Plus, any product I use that is not handmade or natural dries my skin out really bad. Now, a lot of people mistake all handmade products as being natural products which is not necessarily true. Natural handmade products are products that contain ingredients obtained from nature. In other words, the ingredients are made by nature, not man. Handmade products may be made with natural ingredients, but are not necessarily 100% natural. Some of the items I make are indeed 100% natural like the Rose Water Setting Spray, Antibacterial Spray, Clear Skin Spritzer, Tea Tree Lip Balm, Original Lip Balm, Lemongrass Lip Balm, Lip Butters, Sea Weed Clay Mask, Wheatgrass & Olive Leaf Face Mask, and most of the Eye Shimmers. Check out the Etsy store for individual listings.

Antibacterial Spray

The Antibacterial Spray is also a new item in which is made-to-order meaning that it will take approximately two weeks processing time to ensure that I have the bottles and materials ready. Since it is a natural antibacterial spray, I would prefer not to keep these on hand and just make them to order. I also offer rush shipping after the product is made if customers require a faster shipping method than USPS. Normally it does not take two weeks, but I allow myself the specified time just in case something happens. The Antibacterial Spray comes in 1 oz, 2 oz, and 4 oz sizes. Check the Etsy listing for pricing.

On to sneak peaks! We have already made and are packaging the following items which will be at the Virgilina Summerfest in less than two weeks.
We will be introducing:

• Watermelon Lip Balm-This is a tinted lip balm with the flavor of juicy, sweet watermelon. Perfect for starting the Summer off just right!
• Lip Tints-I have already made 4 starter shades that will be introduced along with the Watermelon Lip Balm.
• Raspberry Lemon Fizz Soap-Smells just like raspberry lemonade and made with our Goat's Milk formula for soft, smooth skin.
• Springtime Soap-Scented with Clover & Aloe for a fresh, clean way to start your day.
• Black Raspberry Vanilla Soap-Delicious black raspberry with a slight hint of vanilla. These will come in generous 4 oz. bars. I wanted to see how people would respond to a larger bar. They are $8.00 each which would be the same price for 2 2oz. bars.
• Hot Pink Soap-Scented with a sweet tropical fruit blend and topped with lime. A perfect addition to Summer scents and soaps.

Thank You!
